An Unexpected Adventure Ch. 4: Nari's World

"Enter disclaimer about not owning Pokemon here"
This should be interesting.
The kiss felt like it lasted an eternity, but I knew it only lasted a second. Alex pulled back from me, looking down in surprise and confusion.
"I uh...I don't know what to..." He kept pausing, unable to find the right words. I knew he was about to reject me. "I...will be right back." He got up from the couch and immediately fell down due to his leg. "I'm ok, just...wait here." I had started to get up to help him, but I sat back down as he hobbled down the hallway. After a bit I heard him close the bath room door.
I knew kissing him was a bad idea. I just had to though. What he did scared me, even terrified me, but I liked him. He was the only person who had ever been nice to me. And unlike my previous trainer it wasn't a show. He was a good person. He saved my life even though I didn't deserve it. He saved me even after I nearly killed him. I like him. I didn't know what else to do but kiss him. It had barely been a week since I first attacked him, but I knew. Listening to him tell his story was the final proof I needed. He was a good person with a sad past. I knew I liked him and I thought he liked me. Maybe I was wrong. Maybe he doesn't like me and I just made a huge fool of myself. He'll hate me...or pity me...I'm not sure which is worse. In the middle of all this self-exploration I didn't hear Alex come back into the room.
"Nari..." He said my name gently, no doubt he was going to let me down gently. "I like you Nari." I perked up at this. Maybe I would get my happy ending after all. I looked up at him, expectantly, hoping for the best. "But...we can't do that." My heart fell and I looked away from Alex before he could see the tears forming in my eyes. "I want to...I really do, but it's dangerous. It's super illegal and if we got caught I'd go to jail and without me they'd kill you. I don't want that. I...I can't do this...I'm so sorry, I really am." He started to limp back towards me, but I stopped him before he could reach me.
"Go away Alex."
"Nari, please. I'm sorry."
"Go away. I thought you cared for me. I really did. I didn't want to like you and I know we just met...but I do. I can't help it. I can't control it. You're the only person that has ever been nice to me and I thought...just...just go away. Please, just...leave me alone." I laid down on the couch, my back to him, hoping he would leave before I started crying.
He started to say my name again, but gave up. He whispered sorry then I heard him limp his way down the hall. His door closed gently and I was left alone with my failure. As soon as I heard his door shut I started to cry. I cried for a long time. By the time I was done the pillow Alex had given me upon my arrival was soaked. I threw it to the ground and sat up. I couldn't believe what I had done. I ruined it. If I had just waited maybe he would of gotten used to me. Maybe he would of cared more. I wiped my eyes and jumped down from the couch. I used my powers to make sure that Alex was asleep then made my way to the bathroom. I floated up to the counter and stood before the mirror. One of the things I liked about Alex was that he didn't make fun of how I looked. I didn't look like a normal Ralts. My white fur was striped with faint red lines and I was a good six inches taller than most, putting my height at right around two feet. My hair was disheveled and messy instead of the straight bowl cut of my fellows. My horns were also different being smaller and instead of the middle of my head, stuck out the side like a Kirlia's. I always hated how I looked. It always made me the odd one out no matter where I was. People could instantly tell that there was something wrong with me. Maybe Alex hated how I looked too, maybe that's why he didn't like me. He said he did, but he obviously didn't. He only took me in because he pitied me. He saved me and felt like he had to take me in. He didn't want to.
I had to leave. It was the only option. He would only pity me more after embarrassing myself so badly tonight. I jumped off the counter and walked into the living room. I made my way into the kitchen and grabbed the bag of pokemon food Alex had bought for me. I walked towards the front door, pausing briefly to decide whether to actually leave or not. No. I had to, I couldn't face Alex after this. I opened the door, my mind made up, and marched into the night.
I was pretty lost already. I marched from Alex's house straight into the forest and I couldn't figure out where I was. I kept walking forward hoping to find some indication of where I was. I eventually wandered into a clearing and decided to take a break. I opened up the bag of pokemon food and starting munching on some of it. I stared up at the night sky marveling at the beauty of the stars against the black sky. That's when I noticed something. This was the clearing where Alex told me he was my trainer now. The same clearing where he came and found me the first time I ran away. And that is when I realized that Alex did care for me. He came and found me that night when he didn't have to. He could have just let me run away and tell the cops that I did. He would have been scott-free, but he didn't do that. He ran here...to find me and comfort me.
I sat there for a long time in the clearing thinking about how Alex had gone out of his way to take care of me. I decided I had to go back. Maybe Alex really did care for me. Maybe he was just scared of the consequences of his actions and I could understand that. It wasn't a sure thing, but it was more than I've ever had before. I stood up, then realized that I was lost.
"Fuck." I heard rustling and a low growl coming from behind me. I turned and saw a Growlithe emerging from the bushes. I slowly backed up as it advanced and snarled at me. I tossed the pokemon food in the bushes hoping that it would take the bait, but it didn't. I prepared to fight it when it rushed and crashed right into me. I flew through the air landing on my side a few feet away. I coughed as the air left my lungs. I desperately tried to regain my breath as the Growlithe advanced on me again. I put my arm up to protect my face when I heard a familiar voice call out.
"Hey fuck off." Alex came crashing through the bushes, struggling to get through with his crutches. The Growlithe ran off as soon as he approached. "What are you doing out here Nari? You scared the shit out of me." He looked down at me and I could see the fear in his eyes. "Are you hurt?" The concern that accompanied those words was the greatest sound I had ever heard.
"Yeah...yeah I'm ok."
"What are you doing out here?" I hesitated wondering if I should tell him the truth.
"I...I was running away again." He opened his mouth to ask why, but I interrupted him. "I was just on my way back. It was...it was a dumb thing to do. I'm really sorry I scared you, but I'm ok." He smiled slightly as he stuck his hand out to help me up. I reached up and he effortlessly pulled me to my feet.
"Home?"
"Yes please."
We arrived at Alex's house near sunrise. It took a lot longer than usual to get back due to Alex's injuries. He opened the door for me as he usually did and I immediately jumped on the couch and wrapped the blanket around me. He followed in behind me and locked the door. He leaned his crutches against the end table and slowly lowered himself onto the couch next to me.
"Why did you try and run away?" His words came after several minutes of silence and I jumped at them. He wasn't looking at me, instead choosing to stare at the blank TV. I could tell he was upset, but didn't want to show it.
"I was embarrassed. I thought you hated me or something..." I trailed off at the ridiculousness of that statement. Alex's head turned towards me and I lowered mine and focused on my feet.
"Hated you?" I could hear something along the line of anger in Alex's voice. "Are you serious?" He was getting angry now. "Nari I've taken you into my home. I saved your life after you nearly killed me. That was just being nice. I went and found you when you ran away...twice. Do you know why I did that?" I stayed quiet, Alex was scary when he was angry. "Nari. Look at me." I slowly lifted my head to meet Alex's eyes. I could see anger and sadness in his eyes. "I did it because I care about you. I haven't known you for that long, like a week maybe, but I do. My feelings for someone have never grown that fast, especially considering what has happened to me. I'm...disappointed in you Nari. I thought you liked me? But you think I hate you? I...I'm hurt." Looking into his eyes I could see pain behind the anger. Real pain, I had hurt his feelings badly. "Look...I'm going to sleep. I hope that...when I wake up we can put all this behind us. Deal?" I paused for a second still staring into his eyes, wondering how he felt about me now. I nodded my head. "Ok...good night Nari." He seemed less angry now, but the sadness in his voice had grown.
"Good night Alex." My voice was barely above a whisper. But he heard it in his mind. He paused as he started to get up from the couch.
"I still like you Nari." It was a low whisper, but I caught it. He forced himself off the couch and struggled down the hallway, leaving the crutches where they were. I smiled to myself as he left the room. He still likes me...maybe I have a chance, in the distance I heard his door close. I laid down on the couch, pulling the blanket over myself as I did. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I woke up a few hours later. Sitting up I realized it was the middle of the morning and sun was crashing through Alex's open living room windows. I had to talk him into getting something to cover them up. They made it impossible to sleep in. I walked into the kitchen and made a sandwich, munching on it as I made my way back into the living room. I jumped back up on the couch and finished my breakfast wondering if Alex was awake. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes, letting my field of power expand. I felt it rush through the air towards his room. It went through the door and I could see Alex's sleeping frame in my mind. Splayed on his back with the blanket twisted around his legs.
"Sleepyhead. I should come wake you up. If I can't sleep in then you can't." I hopped off the couch and floated myself down the hallway, not risking any noise to wake Alex up. I opened his door just enough to slip through then gently shut it again. I used my powers to see in his pitch dark room. I approached the bed, making sure to step around the clothes he had thrown on the floor. I floated up and over him, landing on the other side of him and kneeling by his side. His bed was soft and my knees sunk in slightly as I landed. I looked him over as he slept, noticing the healing wound on his side as I did so. His lanky frame was sprayed over the bed, one arm was over his head and another by his side, while his legs were open slightly. His body was etched in muscles, abs starting to become defined on his stomach. I moved down his leg slowly looking at his new wound, covered by a blood soaked bandage. I sighed sadly at this sight, wondering how much more pain he would have to endure in his lifetime.
I started to slowly slid back up the bed, but stopped suddenly, looking down at the bulge in his boxers. I wanted to look so bad. I checked to make sure he was still sleeping. He was. I looked back at the bulge weighing the pros and cons of the situation. One more check on Alex, still sleeping. I made a decision and reached out before I could change my mind. I grabbed the waistband on his boxers and pulled them down until his cock was exposed.
"Holy shit." Was the only thought that I could think of. His cock was tall and thick, around eight inches long. "Wow." I reached out to touch it, but pulled back before I could make contact. I didn't want to push my luck...but I really wanted to touch it. I looked over at Alex and had a thought. I focused my powers on his head. I pushed into his brain and found the part that controlled sleep. I prodded it until it took over his mind, putting him into a deep sleep. I knew what I was doing was wrong, but I couldn't stop myself. I had never touched a dick before.
I turned my attention to the task at hand. I slowly reached out until my hand was centimeters away from it. I took a deep breath and put my hand on it. It was warm. I slowly moved my hand up and down massaging Alex's cock. It felt just as great as I imagined. It was thick and warm in my grasp, twitching whenever my hand brushed against the head. It was kind of adorable. I checked on Alex to make sure he was still in his deep slumber. Confirming that he was I quickly leaned over and gave his head a lick. It jerked when I did and I feared I had woken him up. He was still asleep, I guess my sleep trick did it's job well. Confident he wouldn't wake up I turned my attention back to the task at hand. I gave it another lick, enjoying the taste on my tongue. I kept moving my hand up and down, gently applying more pressure as I did so. I leaned over and starting running my tongue around his head. I pulled back to admire the job I had done so far. My hand kept running up and down his shaft as pre-cum trickled out of his head to join my saliva in coating it. I had never done this before, but I'm pretty sure I was doing a good job. I smiled to myself slightly, proud at my work. I tried wrapping my mouth around the head and could just barely fit it in. Popping it out of my mouth I took a deep breath and tried again. I got the head in my mouth and pushed my head down sliding the top of the shaft into my throat. It hit my gag reflex immediately and I took it out of my mouth, coughing. Alex was still asleep, but his breathing had deepened considerably and every now and then a soft moan would escape from his mouth. I started moving my hand up and down faster and faster. I couldn't suck his dick, but I continued to lick the head. I swirled my tongue around it bathing it in my saliva. Still working my hand up and down, his dick started twitching considerably more. I put the head back in my mouth and started sucking on it while still licking the tipt. All of a sudden I felt a surge flow through his cock and felt something thick and warm explode in my mouth. I tried to swallow it, but it was way too much. I pulled it out and it started splashing on my face.
Eventually it stopped. I tried to wipe all the cum off my face put it just got stuck on my hand. I floated off the bed and looked around Alex's room. I found a dirty towel from his laundry basket and used it to clean off my face and hand. I returned to the bed and wiped off Alex. I started to panic, realizing that I had essentially raped him.
"Fuck, fuck. What have I done? Shit...ok...calm down Nari. It'll be ok. He never has to know." I heard Alex groan. Shit! He was waking up. I jumped off the bed and opened his bedroom door. I turned back to the bed right as he opened his eyes.
"Nari? What are you doing?"
"I was coming to wake you up. You gonna sleep all morning?"
"Oh...no I'm getting up." He looked over at his clock. "Man its almost noon." He started to get out of bed but, then realized he was clad only in his boxers and quickly grabbed the blanket and pulled it over himself. "Go into the living room, I'll be there after I take a shower."
"Okay." I giggled to myself as I walked out. His modesty amused me after what happened. I flew down the hallway into the living room and jumped onto the couch. I heard Alex struggle to the bathroom and then, shortly after that, I heard the shower water run. I started jumping up and down. I knew what I did was wrong, but I loved it so much. His dick was so big. I wanted it inside of me so bad, but I knew I couldn't do that. That would be too far. Hopefully he would come around.
A while later Alex hobbled into the living room.
"So...how are you feeling this morning?" He asked me plopping himself down on the couch next to me.
"Oh you know...not too bad."
"That's good...you sleep ok?"
"Not really I'm still pretty tired." I laughed to myself at the reason I had not slept.
"Oh...well you could go to sleep now. Might as well, we can't exactly go anywhere."
"Ok...thanks Alex." I laid down, resting my head on his thigh. I think he was about to tell me to move, but changed his mind. Instead he rested his hand on my head. It wasn't the first time he had touched me, but it felt like it was. He ran his hand through my hair, scratching me behind my horns. No one had ever done that before. It felt amazing. He turned on the TV and started watching some show. I couldn't tell, his scratching had me falling asleep and before I knew it I was dreaming.
In my dream I was in a forest, but it wasn't a normal forest. It was a clearing and I could only see about 5 feet around me. Everything outside of that zone was pitch black. I tried seeing with my powers, but I got absolutely nothing. I did not liking where this was going. I started to walk forward, but my field of vision didn't improve. The darkness didn't move. Shit. I was stuck in a circle. I continued to stare at the darkness, trying to make out anything.
"Well, well, hello there little bitch." A voice boomed out over my head. I froze. I knew that voice. I really didn't like where this was going. "Turn around. You don't really have a choice." It boomed out again. The voice was different, but I knew who it belonged too. I turned and looked up to where I had heard the voice. There, towering over me, was the face of my old trainer. "There's the little bitch."
"Don't call me that."
"That's the name I gave you, remember?"
"That's not a name!!" I was angry. I hated being called that. It was demeaning and insulting.
"Wrong. It's your name." His face got closer to me and I realized that in my dream...nightmare...he was a giant. "It's what you are. It's why I named you that."
"NO! Fuck you! You're a monster!You always were a monster...but I'm happy now."
"HAHAHAHA. Happy? With him? He refused to have a relationship with you. I wanted one with you!"
"But I didn't want one with you! That's the thing you never understood." Just then he reached down with his hand, just as gnarled and gross as always, perpetual dirt still stuck under his fingernails. "NO! Stay away from me!!" I turned to run, but he grabbed me.
"You'll regret turning me down. I would have fucked you until you screamed and you would of learned to love it. Have no fear little bitch, this nightmare is far from over." With that he threw me. I flew through the air until I landed in another clearing. I wasn't hurt. I picked myself up and looked around. This clearing was darker than the first, but sunlight was streaming down onto one particular spot. It was about ten feet away and I could see two prone forms laying on the ground. As I approached I realized what this was, but I couldn't stop myself from walking forward. I was powerless over my own body. I walked into the circle of sunlight and collapsed to my knees as I saw the dead bodies of a Gardevoir and Gallade. My parents. I couldn't take this anymore. I turned and ran into the darkness.
"Nari! Nari stop!" I heard Alex's voice far, far away. Too far away. I ran right into a new clearing. It was mine and Alex's clearing.
"No! No! I wanna wake up now. Please, please." I collapsed, crying, to the ground.
"What's wrong Nari?" I looked up at the sound of Alex's voice to see him standing above me, unharmed and smiling down at me. "Why so sad?" He grabbed my arm and pulled me to my feet.
"Alex we have to run. We have to run before something happens."
"What are you talking about Nari? Everything is fine. You just ran away again." His face fell at this. "Why did you run away again Nari?" His grip on my arm tightened. "Why would you run from me Nari? WHY?!" His last word was a shout. His grip tightened to a vice. I could feel the blood flow in my arm being cut off.
"Ow! Alex let go, you're hurting me." I tried to pull away from him, but he wouldn't let go.
"God Nari STOP!!" There was Alex's voice in my head again, but Alex was right in front of me and he didn't say anything.
"What's going on Alex?"
"Why did you leave again?!" At that Alex pulled out a knife and stuck it to his throat.
"Alex NO!" He pulled the knife across the throat, and his blood started to spill down his front.
I woke up suddenly. Alex's living room was all but destroyed. The end tables had been tossed across the room and the TV had fallen off the wall, shattered and destroyed. I looked around for Alex and found him slumped against the couch, unconscious with blood dripping from his nose.
"No, no, no, no, no. Oh god what have I done?" I ran to Alex's side and put my head against his chest. Ok, still a heartbeat, thank God. I lifted him with my powers and took him to the bathroom. Holding him there I managed to strip him down to his boxers and lower him gently into the tub. "I'm so sorry Alex." I turned on the cold water and let it splash on his face. I used a rag to wipe him off, cleaning him as best as I could. Eventually he started coughing and I directed the water towards his torso and turned on some hot water. He slowly opened his eyes and looked up at me.
"You have seriously got to stop doing that."
"I'm so sorry Alex."
"What the hell happened?"
"I...I had a nightmare..." It sounded so ridiculous saying it out loud.
"Oh...well damn. Gotta calm down dear."
"I know I'm so sorry, I'm so very sorry...I'm glad your alive." He laughed weakly.
"Me too Nari...me too." He looked around at his surroundings. "Wait a minute. How did I get here?" He looked down. "And more importantly why am I only wearing underwear?"
"Oh...uhh yeah I had to wake you up and I didn't want to soak all your clothes soooo...yeah..." I looked away from him embarrassed, but look up when I heard him laughing.
"Oh Nari."
"What?" He looked at me, a glimmer of joy in his eye.
"You're so violently adorable. You knock me unconscious with some sort of mind power, but are embarrassed that you had to undress me." He chuckled and motioned with his hand. "Can you help me out of here?" I lifted him out of the tub and gently set him down. He stood on his own, but favored his right leg. He grabbed a towel and started drying himself off. He limped to his room and came back out dressed in shorts. "Hope you don't mind, but I'm not gonna bother putting on a new shirt." I nodded, looking down as I felt the blood rush to my face. I hope he didn't notice me blushing.
"I'm sor-" He cut me off before I could finish.
"You had a bad dream, its ok. Just try and not do that again, you have no idea how much pain it causes." I nodded to him as he gently sat back down on the couch. He then sighed deeply and immediately stood back up. "I think I'm actually gonna go to bed now."
"Oh...ok I'll see you in the morning Alex." He started to leave the room, but paused in the doorway to the hallway.
"You coming?" He asked expectantly. I look up at him, tilting my head to the side in confusion. "You just had a violent nightmare, I don't think its fair to make you sleep alone. You can sleep in my bed tonight." I jumped off the couch and started to run across the room, but he stopped me. "On the condition that you stay on your side of the bed." Dammit. That sucked, but I had to take what I could get. I nodded in agreement and walked down the hallway behind Alex.
He opened his bedroom door for me, bowing slightly to me as I entered. He clicked on the lamp beside his bed and climbed in. I jumped over him and got under the blanket on the other side. He smiled at me.
"Good night Nari."
"Good night Alex." With that he clicked off the lamp and the room was bathed in darkness.
I rolled over on my back and stared up at the ceiling. I was in his bed! I knew nothing was going to happen, but it was better than nothing. I closed my eyes and looked at him with my mind. He was lying on his side...facing me? Why was he doing that? His eyes were open and he was watching me. He probably thinks I'm asleep. He rolled over on his back and started to look at the ceiling, seemingly debating something in his head. Suddenly, his arm stretched out and gently looped around me. He softly pulled me over to his side and wrapped his arm around me, cupping me to him. I smiled and rubbed his side with my head. He responded by scratching me behind my horns. It wasn't exactly what I wanted to happen in his bed, but I'll take it.
Hope you guys enjoyed that. Nari's mind is full of self doubt and hatred isn't it? I originally planned this chapter to be a completely different chapter, but thought I should get this out of the way first. So that short chapter I mentioned? Yeah that'll be next time. As always feedback is appreciated.
